SYRACUSE — PPD
Lost in the excitement over Ryan Perry being recalled to Washington to replace Brad Lidge in the bullpen (what? there was another move?), was the postponement due to cold weather for the second time this week. The two teams will play a pair of seven-inning games this afternoon at 1 p.m.
Bowie 6 Harrisburg 2
• Ballard 5⅔ IP, 4H, 1R, 1ER, 2BB, 6K, HR
• Frias (L, 0-1) 2⅓ IP, 5H, 4R, 4ER, BB, K, 1-1 IR-S
• Pahuta 3-3, 2-2B, BB, RBI
• Hood 2-4, R, OF assist (2B)
• Leon 2-4, R, 2B
With four runs in the 9th, Bowie knifed the Senators for a 6-2 loss in Harrisburg. Marcos Frias took the loss, giving up four hits in the frame, and five hits total. Harrisburg notched eight hits total, but just four batters hit safely with Tim Pahuta leading the foursome with a single, walk, and a pair of doubles. Starter Mike Ballard went the first five and 1/3rd innings, allowing a run on four hits and two walks while striking out six.
Myrtle Beach 5 Potomac 4
• Olbrychowski (ND) 6⅔ IP, 4H, 3R, 2ER, 3BB, 6K
• Wort (BS, 1; L, 0-1) 1⅓ IP, 2H, 1R, 0ER, 0BB, 0K, E(1, pickoff)
• Moore 2-4, R, HR, 3RBI
• Freitas 1-3, BB, RBI
Errors will be the excuse, but hitlessness was the reason for the loss Last Night In Woodbridge
Hagerstown 9 Rome 3
• Turnbull (ND) 5IP, 5H, R, ER, 0BB, 3K
• Barrett (W, 2-0) 2IP, 0H, 0R, 0BB, 4K
• Burns 2-3, 2R, 2B, 2BB
• Souza 2-5, R, 2-2B, RBI
• Miller 1-5, R, HR, 5RBI
Justin Miller’s grand slam highlighted a six-run ninth as the Hagerstown Suns took the third of three games from the Braves with a 9-3 win. Kylin Turnbull came off the DL to toss five innings, giving up a run on five hits, with no walks and three strikeouts, leaving with a 2-1 lead. Christian Meza and Alex Kreis each gave up a run in relief before Aaron Barrett shut down the Braves over the last two innings to earn the win. The Suns took advantage of the seven walks and two hit batsmen to score their nine runs on just six hits, though four of them were for extra bases. Hagerstown finishes its Georgia swing with three against the Augusta GreenJackets.
Tough start to the home stand for the Senators on Friday night. Their Thursday game was delayed due to rain and so they didn’t arrive home in Harrisburg until 3am. Should be a better showing on Saturday.
